Tue, 23 Feb 2010 19:52:29 +0000http://blog.us.playstation.com/?p=23843#comment-344735one thing that really needs to change is that OIC’s have to effectively outrank Platoon leaders who both which must outrank Squad Leaders who in turn must outrank everyone else and this is most obvious in aquisition. Too frequently a noob without a microphone will take control of vehicles or bunker turrets not knowing what to do, where to position themselves or what to defend and different tactical importances. As you rank higher in leadership you should be able to have priorities over vehicles and bunker turrets and be able to displace team mates ranked lower than you. It is near impossible to win some maps when a noob pops in and starts dictating strategy by controlling certain elements of the game the OIC/Platoon leaders and squad leaders should be controlling. It is especially important these leaders have good positions so they can frequent the main map to issue squad command abilities.

SVER easily win domination, they have the best map to defend, Raven has the worst to defend. I am valor by the way. Acquisition and Raven have the best, rarely play SVER but the Valor one is hard to defend. Sabotage is pretty equal. If you guys want a challenge and want to be the underdog then dont join SVER, its more fun that way

Medic, repair, and kills. If you do these at or around the frago you get double points.

If your having trouble with recoil invest in a foregrip and stablizing. The guns have about the same recoil as other FPS and with these it’s less than other shooters.

1. Your squad comes through your headset, I think it’s people in your area or the other squads w/ the same frago not sure which.

3. Only the S.V.E.R. maps are easier to defend, that does need to be fixed

4. I had that problem about every other match until I joined a clan

5. Not bad for 256 players, as good as COD MW2

8. Out of 82 matches I’ve only been in 2 that lagged, it only lasted a minute or two. Others I’ve talked to that have lag issues turned out to be their wireless conection

It does need some patching, but I have a feeling Zipper will do right by us unlike IW and a few other devs.

First SVER can be beat in domination. I have played matches with victory. Second Squad leaders should set fragos and squad mates should follow orders. The system allows leaders to lead there squad with out a mic, but it is very helpful, just follow orders Why does everyone go after the burnoff towers before the bunkers? Also the APC is not a tank! It IS your spawn point us it that way, protct it dont drive it into the gate between 2 bunkers so everyone that spawns gets blown up with it. Be flexible try new strategies when one isn’t working and have fun.
Valor lvl 40 platoon leader

You can defend your bunkers great and all, but if the attackers can get by on the other side and take the vehicle, you have to rush back all the way to take it out. Other modes have much better progression with the objectives.

The controls are pretty standard for FPS games. The recoil is almost nonexistent and has never hindered me when trying to get a kill.

1. Wut? This has never happened to me.
2. Again wut? This has never happened to me.
3. I do better when attacking then defending. What map do you have problems attacking on?
4. There is team work, people just like to not use it. If they squad leader has no mic than just go to the frago and assume that is what they want. That works for me.
5. I beg to differ.
6. I agree, I remember it was a pain for me because it is broken.
7. I do believe Massive Action Game is appropriate considering it is an action game that is MASSIVE.
8. I have never lagged not even once. Your internet must be slow and only lagging on your end.

I love lists don’t you!?

I don’t know if Zipper condones this but I have used it a couple times to help win when the platoon just isn’t working right.
